Buddy Rich

This looks authentic to me

How bout you?

Yes I believe the dedication was added by another person

I still haven't found my right BR item so here's another one

I think it’s good. Don’t really like the added inscription. Mike jacked it up.

Thanks Rick

Ya the added inscription is an eye sore

But I like it's on a concert program from the 80's

It's very reasonably priced and open to offers as the seller inherited his Dad's collection

Probably better to wait for a real "turn on" sig that presents good eye candy

Think I’d still pay the QO and have Roger give it a look for a second opinion if you decide to pounce on it.

That sure looks like a Sharpie or equivalently designed marker and if it is, I hate to be a killjoy, but I'm pretty sure that the marker used to produce that signature wasn't around in commercial use until 1993.

Also odd for that inscription to be an add on!

Very skeptical of this one.

Thanks Woody

I'm going to avoid it

Too much I don't like about

I looked at it on my friend's PC and I'm 95+% sure that's a silver sharpie and not a paint marker or brush. That would negate it being signed prior to 1988 (Rich passed in 1987). And worth noting, those early (first generation sharpie metallic sharpie markers) probably could not have generated such a bold path, the formula being far more viscous than it was later on.
